boston. >> yes, i do. >> why was he so significant to that run of a couple titles? >> as mark can attest, talk about who theo is in terms of his background. it's not just baseball, his family background, his cultural/social political background is enormously interesting. >> no, it's fascinating. first of all, he grew up in brookline, right next to boston, i grew up in that area, as mike did. and so he was familiar to me. and his dad is head of creative writing at b.u. he wrote some great novels including one called "king of the jews" which i think is probably his best-known book. he also -- theo's grandfather wrote the "cause blasablanca" screenplay. theo's twin brother, he's a great sort of do-gooder, social worker who's done a great deal for charity in the boston area. his sister has done a lot. has written for "homicide" and a lot of great tv shows. this is a family that's accomplished a great deal. what's interesting about theo is he has a lot of angst about his life choices. here's someone who has lived his childhood dream, made tons of money, delivered a world

i happen to be speaking at two synagogues this weekend in boston. one reform, one conservative. there was recognition that there was violence and bloodshed on all sides and think mostly you're hearing anxiety. long-te long-term. there has to be a diplomatic solution. while i don't want to necessarily be partisan about it. i would just observe that 70% of american jews voted for barack obama. his attitudes towards potential peace in the middle east between the israelis and the palestinian was far more positive than that expressed by mitt romney to the degree that gives you an idea where that is coming from. that part is clear. >> i'll give you the last word because we're moving out of time. our eyes are going to stay on all of these questions. moving forward, we're going to talk a bit about our other foreign policy entanglements. stay with us. the president is in thailand today as part of a three-day international trip. tomorrow he will stop in burma, making the first ever sitting president to visit the southeast asian nation. we'll focus more on the president's second term agend
